Abstract
Techniques are described for sharing clipboard data by redirecting it between different virtual desktop sessions. A first user establishes a first desktop session and submits a request to share their clipboard data with a second user working on a second virtual desktop session. The request to share clipboard data is transmitted from the first desktop session to a connection server, where it is determined whether the second user currently has any active virtual desktop sessions. If so, the connection server forwards the request to all active virtual desktop sessions of the second user, where the second user is provided with an option to approve or deny the request. If the second user approves the clipboard redirection request, the connection server notifies the first virtual desktop session, and a virtual channel of a remote display protocol can be established for sharing the clipboard data.
